Figure 2E-30. Example of Using an Interchange Sequence Sign for Closely-Spaced Interchanges

This figure shows 2 examples of using an interchange sequence sign for closely-spaced interchanges, plus 7 examples of other guide signs for closely-spaced interchanges.

The figure shows one direction of a vertical four-lane freeway with a median, with the direction of travel from the bottom to the top of the figure. The 2 lanes in each direction are shown separated from each other by broken white lines. The figure shows three diamond-shaped interchanges and three reference location signs (RLS). The two-lane roads shown aligned horizontally on the page are labeled (from the bottom to the top of the page) Park Street, Fitch Way, Kenston Avenue, and Tolenas Street. The lanes are shown separated from each other by broken yellow lines. A series of horizontal rectangular green signs and plaques, all with white legends and borders, are shown along the freeway from the bottom to the top of the figure. Only signs for traffic traveling in one direction (from the bottom to the top of the figure) are shown.

The first sign is shown located in the median between the northbound and southbound lanes in advance of Park St. It shows the words "Fitch Way" to the left of the numeral "3/4" on the top line, the words "Kenston Ave" to the left of the numeral "1-1/2" on the middle line, and the words "Tolenas St" to the left of the numeral "2" on the bottom line.

The second sign is shown located on the overpass of Park St. over the right lane of the freeway. It shows the words "Fitch Way" on the top line and the words "1/2 MILE" on the bottom line. A smaller, horizontal rectangular plaque is shown above the top right of the sign. It shows the words "EXIT 21." Just beyond the overpass of Park St., RLS 21 is shown located in the median between the northbound and southbound lanes of the freeway.

The third sign is shown located over the right lane of the freeway where an exit is shown angling to the right to Fitch Way. It shows the word "Fitch" on the top line and the word "Way" on the bottom line to the left of a diagonal arrow pointing up and to the right. A smaller, horizontal rectangular plaque is shown above the top right of the sign. It shows the words "EXIT 21."

The fourth sign is shown located on the overpass of Fitch Way over the right lane of the freeway. It shows the words "Kenston Ave" on the top line and the words "1/2 MILE" on the bottom line. A smaller, horizontal rectangular plaque is shown above the top right of the sign. It shows the words "EXIT 22 A."

The fifth sign is shown located in the median between the northbound and southbound lanes, immediately north of where the entrance ramp from Fitch Way is shown entering the northbound lanes of the freeway. It shows the words "Kenston Ave" to the left of the numeral "1/4" on the top line and the words "Tolenas St" to the left of the numeral "3/4 on the bottom line.

The sixth sign is shown located over the right lane of the freeway where an exit is shown angling to the right to Fenston Ave. It shows the word "Kenston" on the top line and the word "Ave" on the bottom line to the left of a diagonal arrow pointing up and to the right. A smaller, horizontal rectangular plaque is shown above the top right of the sign. It shows the words "EXIT 22 A." Just beyond this sign, RLS 22 is shown located in the median between the northbound and southbound lanes of the freeway.

The seventh sign is shown located on the overpass of Kenston Ave. over the right lane of the freeway. It shows the words "Tolenas St" on the top line and the words "1/2 MILE" on the bottom line. A smaller, horizontal rectangular plaque is shown above the top right of the sign. It shows the words "EXIT 22 B."

The eighth sign is shown as a post-mounted sign to the right of the northbound roadway, just north of where the entrance ramp from Kenston Ave. enters the northbound lanes of the freeway. It shows the words "Tolenas St" on the top line and the numeral "1/4 MILE" on the bottom line. A smaller, horizontal rectangular plaque is shown above the top right of the sign. It shows the words "EXIT 22 B."

The ninth sign is shown located over the right lane of the freeway where an exit is shown angling to the right to Tolenas St. It shows the words "Tolenas St" to the left of a diagonal arrow pointing up and to the right. A smaller, horizontal rectangular plaque is shown above the top right of the sign. It shows the words "EXIT 22 B." Just beyond the overpass of Tolenas St., RLS 23 is shown located in the median between the northbound and southbound lanes of the freeway.
